    Default post resurfacing problems

    I just had my 1 year old diamond brite pool resurfaced due to a steel rebar tie coming thru the surface. The re diamond brite process seemed to go well. However, My pool is very, very cloudy and doesn't seem to be getting any better. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to speed up the process? Pool chemistry is fine, however, i was told that they should have waited a month or so to reintroduce the salt for my aquarite as this increses the cloudiness in the pool. I would really appreciate some knowlegeable advice. Thankyou in advance.

    The Diamond Brite installation manual calls for the surface to be brushed twice daily for the first three days and then daily for two weeks (it's not clear whether that's two weeks after the first three days or two weeks total).

    Have you been brushing like a wild man?
